dovecot - Feb 2008 - different mail_locations

Hi all

I've mounted a cluster ACTIVE-PASIVE, with the mailbox in a SAN. The 
user's home are:
/Correo/mail/foo/home

I use:  Postfix, dovecot and dovecot_lda.

The folder /san/mail is only show in the active node (switch the virtual 
ip, filesystem and daemons).

How i configure dovecot mail_location?? Now i have:
mail_location: maildir:/Correo/mail/%n

The problem is that the admin mails in pasive node are in enqueued and 
not arrive.

I need a user with mail_location in /var/spool/mail/foo (in aliases,  
root: foo)and the rest users in /Correo/mail/

I have seen override mail_executable, but it not work with dovecot_lda 
and postfix (local mailer).

I have thinked about:   mail_location: maildir:%h/..

Have you any idea?

That should work if your home directories are set correctly.

Alternatively you could use something else as passwd as userdb (e.g.
passwd-file generated from passwd) and override "mail" field in it for
the one user.

Yes, it work well. But the mail still not arrived.

How do I configure /bin/mail to arrive mails with postfix and dovecot 
off? I use dovecot-lda

# su - myuser -c 'echo $MAIL; echo $HOME'
/var/spool/mail/myuser
/var/spool/mail/myuser/home

# echo hello | mail myuser        (work if postfix is on and dovecot is off)
